Re: Starlancer ship - Coalition Corvette, Kurgen Class

I think I'm nearly finished here, it, with the turrets, is about 9000 triangles.

Damn, that's nice! Any specific uses in mind thus far, Hades?

Re: Starlancer ship - Coalition Corvette, Kurgen Class
I was building it mostly for fun, but also so I could use it for practicing UVMapping and texturing, as I've become far too rusty in the former and I need to learn the latter.

I honestly have no memory of this ship from Starlancer at all, though it does fit in well with the general aesthetic.

Re: Starlancer ship - Coalition Corvette, Kurgen Class
Actually you are supposed to suffer casualties in that mission (although saving the general helps)... You can have a favourable debriefing though... Also, take something fast like a mirage (and not the grendel as I did before)...

 
Re: Starlancer ship - Coalition Corvette, Kurgen Class
Why wouldn't you take the Mirage? It was the best ship until late game, unless you came to rely on the Coyote/Patriot's blindfire feature.

But yeah, what Starlord said. You wont ever save them all, but if you can save some, then the debrief is less harsh and you get the campaign points for a completed objective.

Re: Starlancer ship - Coalition Corvette, Kurgen Class
I actually took the grendel because I liked it's extra firepower very much (i longly preferred it over all the others like the predator or naginata), even if it have without the blind fire features. of course, the patriot came later...

Re: Starlancer ship - Coalition Corvette, Kurgen Class
Man, I hated that mission. Starlancer isn't made for those types of missions, due to mostly the low tech targeting you have. I think protecting Gamma was the hardest part. :(



Now, which one of the two armor plate styles do you prefer, on the engines?

Re: Starlancer ship - Coalition Corvette, Kurgen Class
First one. The Second one makes it look less bolted together, which was part of the appeal of the Kurgen. Damn thing scared the ass off me too, specifically because I was too busy figuring out how it was space worthy to realize it was murdering me, the first time I ran into it.

Re: Starlancer ship - Coalition Corvette, Kurgen Class
Dude, thats an awesome kurgan, I loved blowing those up in Starlancer, nasty buggers. About 20 screamers would do the job tho.

Re: Starlancer ship - Coalition Corvette, Kurgen Class
A port of the Starlancer for Freespace open would be really nice to have.
If you want to be ready for Wing Commander Saga: The Darkest Dawn, then download and play the prologue first.

Here,

http://www.wcsaga.com/downloads/files/download/releases-prologue-setup-exe.html

Then, while waiting for the Darkest dawn, Download Starshatter 4.02

http://www.starshattermods.com/infusions/pro_download_panel/download.php?did=214

You 'll understand why once you have.

There is one slowly being worked on, it's mentioned on the first page.

In that asteroid mission, you'll find protecting gamma harder if you destroyed the 2 fighters in the convoy... I think one is supposed to die at this point.

Looks nice. If you turn it from bottom to up, it would be a nice post-capella variation of Deimos :). Small strike carrier or something.

Second version of the plate. The first one looks utterly extraneous. The second looks like it's on there for a purpose.
